- Mix 3/4 cup sugar, flour and salt in a medium saucepan. Beat egg yolks and 1 cup milk in a small bowl. Stir into sugar mixture. Add remaining 1 cup milk and cinnamon. Stir over medium heat until mixture boils and becomes very thick. Stir in 1 1/2 tablespoons butter. Remove from heat and cool slightly.

[email protected]This pie is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used Granny Smith apples. Next time, I'll try using a sweeter apple variety.
